Turning in to something
Drifting off to always
Got to pull myself back in

Holding back the questions
Bruised with all rejections
Got to pull myself back in

We've suffered the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

Come back around

I miss you around

Reaching out for someone
Burning out for solo
Got to pull myself back in

There's no new religion
And there's no real solution
Got to pull myself back in

We've suffered the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

We've suffered the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

Come back around

Come back around

Feel you're going under
So keep on treading water
Got to pull myself back in

Feel no obligation
No more indecision
Got to pull myself back in

We've suffered the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back

We've suffered the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

Bertoldi Brothers
Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
